the quiet killer

The Perfect Murder

Lucas's pov:
Urg, we have P.E first lesson today, I hate P.E, at least our form tutor is late. I waved at Ezra and he responded by rolling his eyes and shaking his head. This may seem rude to most people, but that's just Ezra, he is quiet and antisocial, I, on the other hand, am very talkative and love to socialise. So was Aarav who happened to sit next to me, I took his phone just to irritate him and then started chatting happily. I took note that Ava wasn't in that day which was a shame as I usually spend my break talking to her, but oh well. Miss Dutta, our teacher walked in, she was 7 minutes late which was surprising for her. I expected to hear the usual "take your books out and read" but no, she said nothing of the sort. I was confused so I looked up at her and noticed she seemed flushed and worried. I assumed that she was annoyed at herself for being late, that was until she spoke.
Miss Dutta's pov:
Class, I need your attention I sounded panicked and rushed, I was aware of that, and I didn't want to worry the class, but I really was scared, "Ava was found dead this morning, she was found in a pool of her own blood a knife plunged into her chest." I told the class. I heard a whisper ripple through the class and knew this much be a shock to them, I felt for her friends and family, I understood this would be hard for them to take in.
Ayema's pov:
I looked at Lucas who was one of Ava's best friend, I knew he was like a brother to her. He wasn't crying, but looked shocked and hurt, like he was hoping this was a joke. I felt my eyes sting with tears, I never cried, I have a very tough, feisty personality and always thought I would never let anyone see me cry, I had way too much pride, but this was too much for me to handle. I broke down crying, I felt so ashamed and embarrassed for letting the whole class see, I tried to hold back my tears, but I couldn't, Ava was my only companion, well, other than Lucas, but he would always spend all of his time bullying, well, not really bullying, they made fun of eachother, but we'll use the term bullying, so, he would always spend his time bullying Ezra, Vinny or Rowan, so, we didn't really talk much in school. I'm not the most popular person in the school, not because I couldn't be, it was by choice, I have a very small circle and I like it like that. My head was in a wirl and everyone fir of course the whole class was discussing what we had just been told, they all sounded so far away, I could hardly breathe, I had only just fully appreciated the significance of ehat I had just been told, my best friend is dead, I will never see her again.
Ezra's pov:
It felt like I was the only one in the whole class not talking about Ava's murder, probably because that was the case, other than the teacher, everyone was whispering to eachother. Usually in a case like this, I'd be a prime suspect as I'm Ava's ex, but we are still young, we ended on good terms, besides, me and Ava are chill, or were chill? Regardless, Ava and I were friends.
Aarav's pov:
Ava and I were never close, I liked her a lot, but I never made an effort to get closer to her, as I knew that my feelings for her would skyrocket and Ezra is my best friend, I could never have done that to him, so I wasn't personally affected that much by her death, but I knew that Lucas and her were really close, so I felt bad as I saw his face which was full of hurt and to be honest, he looked as if he was about to cry, but I knew he wouldn't cry, he wouldn't let his pride get hurt like that. I honestly felt sorry for him, even if I wasn't friends with Ava, I was friends with Lucas. I didn't really have much of a choice, we were forced to sit next to eachother for every lesson, and there was really no point in making enemies with someone you had to see basically every day. Besides, Lucas is gullible and would definitely let me copy off of him, he has on several occasions sent me his notes, let me copy, and take pictures of his work so that I can use it and I'm not a total idiot, he is useful so I'll keep him around, for now. Lucas had a weird thing where he has to be liked by everyone and would do basically anything to make people like him, so yeah, I'll keep him around for a while.
Eva's pov:
I was honestly glad she is dead, I never liked her, she stole my spotlight!! Before she came along and ruined everything, I was the prettiest girl in the class, and now that she has been eliminated, I am once again the Queen. I look over to see Desiree comforting Lucas who was shaking, they are so dramatic, honestly, its not like they saw anyone get killed! I laugh and turned around to talk to Faye, she seems to also not be phased by Ava's death, so she seems like a good person to talk to, also I always talk to Faye. I am just happy that I am the queen again, so I really don't care that the others are so upset, they will get over it. Honestly, I don't know why anyone cares, she was the most annoying person ever, and she was too quiet, all the boys liked her though, but it makes no sense, I'm prettier than her!! They should like me! Now that she is gone though, they will like me, especially Aarav, I don't like him, but I need him to like me, I was so jealous when I found out he liked Ava, so I told the whole class about it, now that she has died, I can have him to myself!! I hate her so much!!!
